Definitions

  • the present invention relates to sacral implants, and more particularly to an improved implant system for fixing a stabilizing appliance to the sacrum and to the lumbar vertebrae.
  • Spinal fusion especially in the lumbar and sacral region is regularly employed to correct and stabilize spinal curves, to prevent recurrence of spinal curves and to stabilize weakness in trunks that result from degenerative discs and joint disease, deficient posterior elements, spinal fracture, and other debilitating problems.
  • Spinal implant systems have been used regularly to stabilize the lumbar and sacral spine temporarily while solid spinal fusions develop.
  • the present invention provides a sacral implant system that rigidly affixes the base of the implant system to the sacrum while allowing ease of installation and flexibility of design. Moreover, the present system provides apparatus for securing the upper portion of the implant system to, for example, the L-1 vertebra, without interfering with the next superior most vertebra (T-12) and any or all vertebrae in between.
  • the sacral implant system of the present invention comprises first and second sacral plates for mounting on opposite sides of the sacrum adjacent the lumbosacral junction. Each of the sacral plates has at least a pedicle and oblique mounting means for rigidly affixing each of the sacral plates to the sacrum.
  • the system also includes first and second rods extending in a superior direction and generally parallel relationship from respective ones of the sacral plates.
  • the rods are situated on opposite sides of the sagittal plane.
  • Means are also provided for rigidly affixing the rods to respective sacral plates.
  • At least one connecting member is employed to rigidly interconnect the rods at a location superior to the sacral plates.
  • a superior fixation plate having a lateral portion and a medial portion is employed to affix the superior most vertebra to be fused to the implant system.
  • a pedicle screw is fixed to and through the pedicle of the vertebra.
  • the lateral portion of the fixation plate is rigidly affixed to the pedicle screw.
  • the medial portion of the fixation plate is offset in an inferior direction sufficiently far so that it avoids the inferior articulate process of the next superior vertebra. In this manner the next superior vertebra can move in a normal fashion relative to the vertebra to be fused during the temporary stabilization.
  • a lateral fixation plate is also used for pedicle fixation of intermediate vertebrae.
  • a specialized pedicle screw for attachment of the offset and lateral fixation plates to the vertebra.
  • the screw includes a first threaded portion for threading into the vertebra, a subhead portion and a second threaded portion projecting above the subhead.
  • the second threaded portion is adapted to receive a nut.
  • the subhead has a diameter greater than the second threaded portion and an upwardly facing shoulder lying in a plane substantially orthogonal to the axis of the screw. In use, the shoulder engages the anterior surface of the fixation plate while the nut is threaded on the second threaded portion and bears down against the posterior surface of the plate to secure the plate and screw together.
  • FIG. 1 is an isometric view of the spinal implant system of the present invention as applied to the lumbar spine;
  • FIG. 2 is an isometric view of a right lateral sacral plate constructed in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view (in the sacral plane) of a sacral plate shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along section line 4--4 of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional line taken along broken cross-sectional line 5--5 of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 are elevation views of fixation screws for use with the sacral plate
  • FIG. 8 is a plan view of the offset fixation plate that is constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • FIG. 9 is a elevation view of a pedicle screw for use with the fixation plate of FIG. 8;
  • FIG. 10 is an exploded isometric view of the fixation plate and screw of FIG. 9 shown in conjunction with a fixation rod and fastening system used in accordance with the present invention

  • FIG. 13 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along section line 13--13 of FIG. 1 through the sacrum looking in an inferior direction at the sacral implant system of the present invention
  • FIG. 14 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along section line 14--14 of FIG. 1 of the pedicle screw and offset fixation plate implanted in accordance with the present invention looking in an inferior direction;
  • FIG. 15 is a lateral view looking from right to left of the offset fixation plate shown in FIG. 14;
  • FIG. 16 is a plan view (in the sacral plane) of a second embodiment of the sacral plate shown in FIGS. 2 and 3;
  • FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view taken along broken cross-sectional line 17--17 of FIG. 16.
  • the spinal implant system 20 constructed in accordance with the present invention is affixed to the lumbar spine, generally designated 22.
  • the implant system includes a pair of sacral plates 24 and 26 affixed to the sacrum 28 adjacent the lumbosacral joint.
  • a pair of fixation rods 30 and 32 extend in a superior direction on opposite sides of the sagittal plane from the sacral plates posterior to the lumbar vertebrae L5, L4, L3, L2 and L1.
  • Rods 30 and 32 terminate adjacent the superior portion of vertebra L1.
  • Conventional fasteners 34 and 36 securely affix the rods 30 and 32, respectively, to the sacral plates 24 and 26.
  • a pair of offset fixation plates 40 and 42 affix the upper ends of the rods to the L1 vertebra.
  • a pair of conventional inferior hooks 44 and 46 grasp the inferior portion of the L1 vertebra to secure it relative to the rods 30 and 32.
  • a straight fixation plate 48 is employedto affix vertebra L3 to the rods 30 and 32.
  • a connecting member 50 rigidifies the rods 30 and 32 relative to each other.
  • the implant system 20 constructed and employed in accordance with the present invention provides a rigid stabilization system for the lumbar spine.
  • the system rigidly ties the sacrum to one or more of the lumbar vertebrae.
  • the offset fixation plates 40 and 42 allow the upper portion of the implant system to be rigidly affixed to the superior lumbarvertebra L1 while avoiding contact with the inferior processes of the next superior vertebra T12. In this manner the T12 vertebra can move in a normal manner while stabilization of the lumbar spine occurs.
  • the right sacral plate is illustrated.
  • the right sacral plate is a mirror image of the left sacral plate; therefore, only the right plate will be described in detail.
  • the right sacral plate 26 has a base 60 having a posterior surface and an anterior surface.
  • the anterior surface of the plate is designed to intimately contact the posterior surface of the sacrum adjacent the lumbosacral joint.
  • the base 60 lies generally in a plane generally tangential to the portion of the sacrum adjacent the lumbosacraljoint. For purposes of this description, that plane will be referred to as the sacral or dorsal plane.
  • a U-shaped flange 62 extends posteriorly from the medial portion of the base 60.
  • the medial surface of the flange 62 carries a groove 64 oriented in a superior/inferior direction for receiving a fixation rod 32.
  • a conventional rod clamp 68 is employed to securely and rigidly affix the rod 32 in the groove 64 on the flange 62.
  • the lateral portion of the sacral plate 26 carries three bores that extend from the posterior surfaceof the base 60 in a generally anterior direction. These bores are the pedicle bore 70, the lateral bore 72 and the oblique bore 74. The bores 70, 72 and 74, while extending in an anterior direction, are not orthogonal to the sacral plane.
  • the pedicle bore 70 has a cylindrical section 80 having an axis 82extending in an anterior and medial direction that is offset in the medial direction preferably at an angle of 15 degrees to a line orthogonal to thesacral plane.
  • a countersink bore 81 is located posterior to the cylindricalsection 80 and emerges onto the posterior surface of the sacral plate. Thisangle can be varied from 0 degrees to 20 degrees, depending upon the particular sacral anatomy being fixed. However, it is understood that the screw that extends through this opening extends through the pedicle of thesacrum and must always lie within the pedicle. It has been found that 15 degrees is the angle most universally acceptable for this orientation.
  • the axis 82 is not inclined in a superior or inferior direction relative to a plane perpendicular to the sacral plate. It however can be inclined superiorly so that the vertebral end plate, rather than the anterior cortex, can be engaged by the end of the screw.
  • the lateral bore 72 has a cylindrical section 84 having an axis 86 extending in an anterior and lateral direction that is preferably offset in the lateral direction at an angle of 30 degrees from a line orthogonal to the sacral plane. If desired, one of ordinary skill may also vary the lateral angle from 30 degrees up to 45 degrees.
  • the axis 86 is not canted in either an inferior or superior direction relative to the sacral plate. However, depending upon the sacral anatomy, the axis can be canted from 0 degrees to 15 degrees in the superior direction when viewed in the sacral plane.
  • a countersink bore 85 is located posterior to the cylindrical section 85 and emerges onto the posterior surface of the sacral plate.
  • the oblique bore 74 also has a cylindrical section 88 having an axis 90 having two offsets in the lateral and inferior directions.
  • the axis 90 when viewed in the sacral plane is first preferably offset 45 degrees froma lateral line, but may be varied from 30 degrees to 60 degrees.
  • the axis 90 is offset in the lateral direction preferably 30 degrees from a line orthogonal to the sacral plane but again may be varied from 30 degrees to 45 degrees.
  • a countersink 89 is located posterior to the cylindrical section 88 and also emerges onto the posterior surface of the sacral plate.
  • the pedicle screw 94 employed with the sacral plate has a unique construction. It has a lower threaded portion 96, an upper flared head 98 and a cylindrical section 100 immediately below the head 98.
  • the head also carries an allen socket 102 so that the screw can be rotated into a hole drilled in the pedicle.
  • the bone engaging threads on the lower threaded portion 96 are of conventional design.
  • the cylindrical section 100 has a diameter slightly less than the diameter of the cylindrical section 80 of pedicle bore 70. The diameters are chosen such that when the cylindrical section 100 is in the cylindrical section 80, the screw 94 can rotate and reciprocate. However, the tolerances are such that the screw cannot angulate or toggle relative to the axis 82.
  • Theupper flared portion 98 is configured to mate with countersink 81 when the screw is completely threaded into the sacrum.
  • Screw 106 is employed in both the lateral bore 72 and the oblique bore 74.
  • Screw 106 also has a lower threaded portion 108, a flared head 110 and a cylindrical section 112. Cylindrical section 112 is sized relative to the cylindrical sections 84 and 88 to allow rotation and reciprocation but not angulation.
  • the flared head 110 is configured to mate with the countersinks 85 and 89 when the screws are completely threaded into the sacrum.
  • the offset fixation plate 40 includes a medial portion 122 and a lateral portion 124.
  • the fixation plate of FIG. 8 is employed on the left side of the fixation system.
  • the lateral portion 124 carries abore 126 that extends in a posterior/anterior direction when installed.
  • Themedial portion 122 is offset in an inferior direction from the lateral portion 124.
  • the medial portion 122 carries a lateral slot 127.
  • the anterior surface of the medial portion 122 carries a plurality of grooves 128 that extend in an inferior/superior direction and intersect the slot 127. These grooves have a diameter equivalent to the fixation rod 30.
  • a conventional rod to clamp fastener 58 is employed to secure the fixation plate 40 to the fixation rod 30.
  • a special pedicle screw 129 is employed with the offset fixation plate.
  • the pedicle screw includes a lower threaded portion 130, a subhead portion 132 and an upper threaded portion 134.
  • the upper threaded portion 134 has an allen socket 136 extending axially into its upper end.
  • the subhead has a diameter larger than the upper threaded portion 134 and terminates in its upward end in a shoulder 138 that is positioned in a plane orthogonal to the axis of the screw.
  • the pedicle screw 129 is received by the bore 126, which is sized just slightly larger than the upper threaded portion 134 so that thepedicle screw can reciprocate relative to the offset fixation plate 40, butcannot angulate relative to the screw axis when engaging the bore 126.
  • a conventional nut 140 is threaded onto the upper portion 134 of the pediclescrew 129 securing the shoulder 138 against the anterior surface of the fixation plate while the nut 140 snugs against the posterior surface, thusrigidly interlocking the pedicle screw 129 and the fixation plate.
  • a straight fixation plate 48 is illustrated in FIG. 11.
  • the straight fixation plate 48 is similar in construction to the offset fixation plate 40 except that it does not contain the offset. It carries a similar bore 144 for receiving a pedicle screw similar to screw 129, a lateral slot 146and rod engaging grooves 148 for securing the plate 48 to a fixation rod.
  • the sacral plates 24 and 26 are affixed to the sacrum 28 adjacent the lumbosacral junction.
  • the anterior surface of the sacrum can be smoothed so as to receive the anterior surface of the sacral plates 24 and 26 in snug relationship.
  • the pedicle screws 94 and 94' for use in the pedicle bores of the sacral plates, are threaded into appropriate bores made by the surgeon through the pedicle of the sacrum.
  • the pedicle screws are snugged down so that the flared heads are seated firmly in the countersinks in therespective plates.
  • a torque ranging from 6 to 10 in./lb. can be used to snug the screws.
  • the physician also makes appropriate bores into the sacrum that are aligned with the lateral bores 72 and 72' and with the oblique bores 74 and 74'. Screws 106 are inserted through the lateral and oblique bores 72 and 74 in the right plate, and bores 72' and 74' in the left plate. All the screws 106 are snugged down so that the flared heads seat snugly in the countersinks in the anterior surface of the sacral plates. Again a torque of 6 to 10 in./lb. is appropriate for snugging the screws into the plate.
  • the oblique screw is designed to be proximal to and parallel the S1 foramin, thereby avoiding damage to the S1 nerve.
  • the medial screw is inclined medially to allow bicortical fixation while avoiding neurovascular structures directly anterior to the S1 pedicle.
  • Thelateral screw is also designed to allow bicortical fixation lateral to the significant neurovascular structures.
  • offset fixation plates 40 and 42 are shown affixed by conventional fasteners 58 to fixation rods 30 and 32.
  • Thepedicle screws 129 are threaded into suitable bores in the left and right pedicle 150 and 152 of the L1 vertebra.
  • Nuts 140 are threaded onto the upper portions of the pedicle screws 129 and tightened against the anterior surfaces of the fixation plates 40.
  • the fasteners 58 thereafter are tightened to secure the other end of the plate to the fixation rods 30and 32. In this manner, the upper end of the lumbar spine implant system can be secured to the L1 vertebra without interfering with the next superior vertebra.
  • the sacral plate 150 has a base 152 having a posterior surface and an anterior surface.
  • the anterior surface of the plate is designed to intimately contact the posterior surface of the sacrum adjacent the lumbosacral joint.
  • the base 152 lies in a plane generally tangential to the portionof the sacrum adjacent the lumbosacral joint.
  • a U-shaped flange 154 is configured in the same way as flange 64 shown in FIG. 2.
  • the medial surface of the flange 154 carries a groove 156 orientedin a superior/inferior direction for receiving a fixation rod 32 that is held in place with a conventional rod clamp 68 as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the lateral portion of the sacral plate 150 carries two bores that extend fromthe posterior surface of the base 152 in a generally anterior direction. These bores are the pedicle bore 158 and the oblique bore 160. The bores 158 and 160, while extending in the anterior direction, are not orthogonalto the sacral plane.
  • the pedicle bore has a cylindrical section 162 having an axis 164 extendingin an anterior and medial direction that is offset in the medial direction preferably at an angle of 15 degrees to a line orthogonal to the sacral plane.
  • a countersink bore 166 is located posterior to the cylindrical section 162 and emerges onto the posterior surface of the sacral plate.
  • the angle of the axis 164 can be varied from 0 degrees to 20 degrees, depending upon the particular sacral anatomy being fixed. However, it is understood that a screw that extends through this opening into the pedicleof the sacrum must always lie within the pedicle.
  • the axis 164 is not inclined in the superior or inferior direction relative to a lane perpendicular to the sacral plate. However, the axis can be inclined superiorly so that the vertical end plate rather than the anterior cortex can be engaged by the end of the screw.
  • the oblique bore 160 also has a cylindrical section 166 having a axis 168 having two offsets in the lateral and inferior directions.
  • the axis 168 when viewed in the sacral plane is first preferably offset at 45 degrees from a lateral line, but may be varied from 30 degrees to 60 degrees.
